High School Recalls Yearbooks Over “Build That Wall” Quote
A high school in North Carolina (go figure) is making headlines after a seemingly xenophobic quote made it to senior yearbooks . Somehow the girl thought it was ok to use “build that wall” as a senior quote, referring to Trumps immigration wall he wants us to pay for to keep “bad” Mexican immigrants away.
Race aside, the politics behind the quote stirred hundreds of feathers. One facebook user posted the quote, raising awareness to friends about it.
So Richmond county school system allowed this to be printed in their 2017 year book. I already knew this city was racist. Get a court date you’ll find out. This doesn’t surprise me at all.
Richmond country schools have since confiscated the year books according to a statement on Facebook.
Earlier this week, it was discovered by school administration that Richmond Early College yearbooks had errors and inappropriate comments.
The principal immediately collected the distributed yearbooks.
We regret that this incident has occurred and are currently working with the yearbook’s publisher to make corrections.
As a district, we do not and will not tolerate inappropriate conduct toward any of our students.
In each situation, our goal is to provide for the well-being of all of our students and prevent recurrences of inappropriate conduct.
